I gathered up the seeds from lots of my herbaceous plants in the autumn, but I can’t work out when to sow them - help!
I also need to know if they should be sown outside, or in the greenhouse which is heated. 
Thank you!

    You would need to let us know which plants you have collected the seeds from to get accurate replies.
    A trowel in the hand is worth a thousand lost under a bush.

    Hi and welcome to the forum.

    Some seeds can be sown directly outside where they are to grow. The majority of mine that I collect are sown indoors. When I have collected the seeds, they go in a labelled envelope. I Google the month/s they should be sown and whether indoors or outdoors.

    If you post a list of the seeds you want to know about, we can certainly help you 😁
